Apple Tree - Honeycrisp - Sale Price: $149.94 High Quality Apples on Attractive Tree The Honeycrisp apples are highly rated for flavor and storage consistency. Tall enough to provide some shade, the Honeycrisp would do well as a stand-alone accent in the yard or planted with some small shrubs for definition.  Its low canopy makes it ideal for planting under power lines or other such troublesome locations. The Honeycrisp will grow to 20 feet and spread an equal distance.  It needs full sun for optimal growth and you can increase your fall yield if you plant another variety close by to aid in pollination. In mid-spring your Honeycrisp’s pink buds will open into clusters of fragrant white blossoms.  The compact nature of the pointed green foliage makes this an attractive tree throughout the summer.  In the fall, the leaves transform into a lovely shade of yellow as a harbinger of winter. You’ll look forward to fall knowing that a harvest of Honeycrisp is in store for you.  Imagine your Honeycrisp amid the fall colors of your yard, laden with round red fruit.  There’s nothing like biting into that first juicy apple right off the tree in late September!  The Honeycrisp is known for being especially crisp and juicy.  It’s great for eating right off the tree or for baking.  The apples don’t immediately drop when ripe, so you can take your time in picking them.  It maintains its color well in storage and can be in cold storage for 6 months before the quality is lessened. Suggested pollinators are Gala, Granny Smith, Empire, McIntosh and Red Delicious. It is not pollinated by Gravenstein. Make sure trees you buy are measured from the ground up! While this may sound a bit sneaky, the sad truth is some nurseries try to make their trees seem a lot taller by including the roots in the height. Even worse, others will charge you for a large tree but then hack them down to save money on shipping. We sell our trees with the height measured from the base up.  When you buy a tree from Nature Hills Nursery, it will be the height you paid for after you plant it.  We take pride in delivering the highest quality plants with healthy roots and full, well-established stems and foliage.  You can buy in confidence with our one year plant guarantee. Our trees are always in high demand.  Order now before they sell out!
